bachelor
Second time's the charm for the Bachelor who admitted he chose the wrong girl the first time around.
If you're like me, your affection for the The Bachelor has waned over the years. You probably skipped a few seasons here and there (There have been 14 Bachelors and Bachlorettes. Fourteen!), but you most likely caught some snippet of the notorious Jason Mesnick. You know, the single dad. Dating A Single Dad: What It's Really Like
He's the one who chose Melissa Rycroft, skipped off happily, then realized he should have chosen Molly Malaney. Oops. And he also chose an unusual way to break the news to Melissa: via national television. He broke up with her on … Read More
Mr. Nice Guy (aka, Jake Pavelka) gets the love he deserves by being the next Bachelor.
Oh, we saw it coming a million miles away. Commercial pilot Jake Pavelka has been crowned the latest Bachelor, as ABC announced on Tuesday night's Dancing With the Stars.
The 31-year-old Texan will pick and choose from dozens of hopeful ladies in The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love (gag!), which is set to air in January 2010.
You probably remember Jake. It's hard to forget his c@#k-block move against Wes, the obnoxious country singer. After Jake had been eliminated, he showed up at Jillian's door to warn her of Wes’s devious ways—namely, the fact that he came on the … Read More
Bachelor George is shacking up with his lady. Will this last?
George Clooney has asked his Italian flame, Elisabetta Canalis, to move into his luxurious Lake Como home, In Touch reports. We're far too jaded at this point to assume that this means George might be ready to settle down and create some disproportionately beautiful, talented and multilingual babies, but that doesn't mean we're not jealous of that lucky hag sunning herself in Italy. With that in mind, let's take a look at some of George's greatest hits on the relationship front. The Truth About Moving in Together
1988: Shacking up with Kelly Preston
George and the future Mrs. … Read More
'Bachelorette' Jillian Harris moving to Chicago to be with Ed Swiderski. The latest on their plans.
Have no fear: the Bachelorette is still with her man. The Chicago Tribune has reported that Bachelorette Jillian Harris is officially moving to be with fiance Ed Swiderski. How To Date Like The Bachelorette
Chicago seems proud. That's where Ed was born, bred and buttered and where he reportedly works as a technology consultant for Microsoft. Jillian is scheduled to leave Vancouver, Canada by September 1 to plant some roots in Chi-town, where she's expected to continue her work as a restaurant designer (and hot dog condiments psychoanalyst). She has discussed spending a few years … Read More
Jon Gosselin's New York City digs details...and another new girl? Why was Kate there too?
A lot of our out-of-control Jon Gosselin questions from last week are finally answered. There was buzz that he was apartment-hunting in New York City, and that his 22-year-old Hailey Glassman appeared to be a very possible roommate as she accompanied him on the appointments.
But according to People, Hailey wasn't around this weekend when Jon settled into his new apartment on the Upper West Side. Instead there were two other women in New York who, yet again, are making us scratch our heads.
Saturday night Jon was spotted out to drinks with a blonde woman in her … Read More
What "The Hangover" tells us about bachelor parties.
In the newly released wedding flick ('tis the season) The Hangover, we get a glimpse of a Las Vegas bachelor party spent among four guys. We see them in the car, driving out to Vegas in a borrowed luxe car. We see them check into the $4,000-a-night party suite. We see them getting on their sleek going-out clothes (well all of them except for the one socially inept character who throws on jeans and a tee that his pot belly pokes out from).
We see them toasting to the groom's last night of freedom on the roof of the building. … Read More
A night of drunken debauchery is still the best way to prepare a man for marriage.
No preface is necessary when it comes to a bachelor party. Women everywhere understand that when their man gives them a ring, he's already got his bags packed for Vegas.
A bachelor party, contrary to say, a bridal shower, is not a celebration of marriage. In fact, it's the opportunity to refute its very principles. A kick-ass bachelor party proves a man, "still has it," is still studly and most importantly, is still on the market, at least in theory.
Why then, when boys misbehave at a bachelor party, are we surprised by their behavior?
In the new movie The … Read More
The Bachelor Jason Mesnick hints at what he's looking for in a second wife.
Besides the fact that never has a racial minority appeared as the Bachelor or Bachelorette on ABC's long-running reality show, we continued to be surprised by contestant Jason Mesnick's choices on last night's episode. Things that would make us sweat (not in a good way)—like being prepared to move cross-country for someone you've known for 48 hours—seem to make this guy smile. Here, a list of things this Seattle-based single dad likes in a lady:
1. I Want You To Want Me. In episode two, Jason admits he's all about the women who want him and aren't afraid to show it—even … Read More
